Well, I'm sick. I haven't had a cold all winter, and figures when the weather is about 60 here I get sick and am stuck in bed. :(
Anyway, Crocker has been sleeping with me all day. Can she catch my cold? She has been laying above my head and sometimes I wake up to her in my face, she must know I don't feel good cause she doesn't usually sleep so close.
:confused:

My vet told me colds can't jump species so not to worry about me giving the pets a cold, them giving me one or the dogs and cats sharing one.

I've always read that humans can not give cats colds. However it seems that Corkscrew and I always get colds at the same time. But now I think it's just allergies and we are both allergic to the same things! We both get sick at the change of seasons.
